Abstract
A system and method can be used for scaling an output of a modulator of a sigma-delta analog to digital converter and systems and a method can be used for compensating temperature-dependent variations of a reference voltage in a sigma-delta analog to digital converter. In accordance with one embodiment, a system can be used for scaling an output of a modulator of a sigma-delta analog digital converter (ADC). A decimation filter has a decimation length that is adjustable by a decimation length value received as an input to the decimation filter. The decimation filter is configured to receive the output of the modulator of the sigma-delta ADC and to decimate the received output of the modulator of the sigma-delta ADC using the received decimation length value.
